The general consensus seems to be:
1) 20th Century Fox owns the "Alien" franchise.
2) "Alien" xenomorphs are born from a Queen.
3) Disney is buying 20th Century Fox.
Therefore
4) Xenomorphs are Disney princesses.
Hi Mastodon. I'm hopeful this is a better place to be than twitter. Could folks point me to other scifi and fantasy authors on the network?
"So i just came out to my dad abt being #nb, and he said something really wise about names, i think.
He said “Gifts are not obligations. You give things to people, and you hope they like them. And your name was a gift from us to you. If it doesn’t work for you anymore, you’re not obligated to keep it.”
and i just thought maybe other people could use hearing something like that."

One of the things that I did post-publisher-divorce was to restart my self-pubbed stuff. For the book that had the highest sales, I purchased a new cover from an excellent cover artist. I think she did an excellent job of capturing the feel of the stories inside.
And....it doesn't sell. Seriously. It's my worst selling full length work, even though there's a Nebula finalist on the cover.
This is one of the downsides of self-pub. You make a decision, and sometimes it doesn't pan out...

Ugh, @frankiesaxx I'm really having difficulty doing what I think I should be able to do on Mastodon.
I want to read the local timeline of writing.exchange How do I doc this? I'd also like to read the local timeline of tenforward.social Finally, I'd like to favorite and/or follow people on both of those instances (as well as mastodon.social)
Help me Frankie-wan, you're my only hope.

New blog post, explaining why you don't need to know anything at all about instances to join Mastodon, and why you don't need multiple accounts.
okay, @frankiesaxx what's the difference between "home," "local timeline," $ "federated timeline?"
. @frankiesaxx So, like, when I see GNU/Art likes Gnome, and I want to give him crap and say how much better KDE is, do I use the whole thing like @art ? Do I need to put a character before the name like on twitter to prevent it from being a whatever it is that tweets start with a @ are?
#introduction
Hello, all!
I'm a scifi/Historical Fiction/Murder Mystery writer from Arizona.
My "day job" is in broadcasting, and I'm just starting to figure out this mastodon thing.
@frankiesaxx Hey, Frankie, how does this "instance" thing work, anyway?
